摘要:
Aspects of the present disclosure describe MOSFET devices that have snubber circuits. The snubber circuits comprise one or more resistors with a dynamically controllable resistance that is controlled by changes to a gate and/or drain potentials of the one or more MOSFET structures during switching events.
摘要:
A switch circuit includes a first MOS transistor and a second MOS transistor of a same conductivity type connected in parallel between a first terminal and a second terminal of the switch circuit, the first and second MOS transistors having respective gate terminals coupled to the control terminal to receive a control signal to turn the first and second MOS transistors on or off. The first MOS transistor is characterized by a first reverse gate-to-drain capacitance (Crss) and the second MOS transistor is characterized by a second Crss that is greater than the first Crss.

A semiconductor power device may include a lightly doped layer formed on a heavily doped layer. One or more devices are formed in the lightly doped layer. Each device includes a body region, a source region, and one or more gate electrodes formed in corresponding trenches in the lightly doped region. Each trench has a first dimension (depth), a a second dimension (width) and a third dimension (length). The body region is of opposite conductivity type to the lightly and heavily doped layers. An opening is formed between first and second trenches through an upper portion of the source region and a body contact region to the body region. A deep implant region of the second conductivity type is formed in the lightly doped layer below the body region. The deep implant region is vertically aligned to the opening and spaced away from a bottom of the opening.

A semiconductor device includes a drain region, an epitaxial layer overlaying the drain region, and an active region. The active region includes: a body disposed in the epitaxial layer; a source embedded in the body; a gate trench extending into the epitaxial layer; a gate disposed in the gate trench; a contact trench extending through the source and at least part of the body; a contact electrode disposed in the contact trench; and an implant disposed at least in part along a contact trench wall; and an epitaxial enhancement portion disposed below the contact trench and in contact with the implant.
